NEW: Two Grey scale Cygnus portraits (above). Click either one for a
1920x1200 wide screen format version. I find it remarkable how many different
looks one can get from the same cam data. There is no limit to the number
of ways you can process an image.

The region from Albiero (the foot of the cross or head of the swan) almost up to
Sadr. Albiero is the bright one with the arrow at the lower right. The

Stock 1
NGC 6823
NGC 6830
Skymap 19500016 mag 9.92
Roslund 4 (but you have to WANT to see it)
NGC 6883
Buir 2
NGC 6871
The x is Basel 6, which did not register. Some others are hard to find
